The Dr. Margaret Launius Gender Equity Center supports, empowers, and enlightens all students about issues of sex, gender, sexual violence, personal safety and health, social justice and educational equity. Our programs and events are designed to foster open discussion and intellectual exchange about these and other issues, to promote an overall sense of well-being, and to create a safe campus climate for all.

Mansfield's Office of Multicultural Affairs (OMA), which functions in collaboration with the Martin Luther King Jr. Center for Belonging, creates intercultural programs and provides educational workshops and outreach programs that foster all areas of diversity and multicultural understanding. 

The OMA also plans the commemoration of holidays including Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.

The OMA, located in the Martin Luther King Jr. Center (MLKC), serves as an educational safe zone for individuals of all backgrounds, nationalities, abilities, ethnic groups, sexual orientations, religions, and social identities. The MLKC is dedicated to helping students cope with the challenges associated with succeeding and graduating from Mansfield. The primary task of the MLKC is to advance and celebrate the diversity of our campus community and to advocate for the needs of its students.
